Of course I adore EVERYTHING about you Joseph, but your joyful , youthful enthusiasm is inspiring and infectious. I'm so happy that you were presented with an opportunity and a project that so obviously blessed you. Thank you for sharing your JOY. YAY, for the Simpsons, young Mr. Burns. and one of my favorite people in the whole world, Joseph Gordon-Levitt!
Short of Jesus himself returning in all his omnipresent glory, driving a Homer spruced up with the Delorians doors, that open as he pulls up next to you, revealing Baby J intoning you to "Get in" before dropping the most righteous fistbump and bro'hug in the history of mankind upon you, I can not think of a single accolade that a person who grew up on the Simpson's, could ever hope to be blessed with and bestowed upon them in their time on earth. Some may say its all downhill from here and who could blame them, but those people have never dared to dream. The world is your oyster and you are its killpatrick. Go forth and embrace your next unfulfilled dream with the same childlike enthusiasm that this thoroughly heart warming video conveyed, or at least run for President, because God knows we need some light right now, and before you say "I'm an actor. I could never become President" let me remind you that Ronald Reagan was also an actor before he attained that lofty mantle and he was never on the Simpson's (although in fairness he was invited).
Checkmate naysayers.
Seriously though your video warmed my insides, lifted my spirits and bought an unconquerable smile to my face by way of the sheer infectious joy you displayed as you described what is obviously a "pinch yourself to believe its really happening" life event.
Simpsons was such an enjoyable read. I am envious. If I went into a booth with headphones and “Lisa Simpson” was in my ear, I think I would drift off my lines.
There’s a clip out there of the cast on a talk show each doing their characters (great fun to watch. I just can’t remember who was the host?
You played Young Mr. Burns? That’s it. You’ve officially peaked. I’m picturing you channeling all the evil billionaire energy while trying not to go full “release the hounds” on the Simpsons fandom. Classic move: “I’m not going to impersonate Burns, I’m going to BE Burns... but better.” And Yeardley Smith? Don’t mind me, just over here imagining you fangirling in the booth while Lisa Simpson’s voice punches you right in the nostalgia. Absolute legend. #BurnsButMakeItSexy
What an awesome add to your long list of accomplishments!!! Note I’m going to have to watch the episode! (Like anyone would have to twist my arm to watch cartoons.. even at 51!)

You said two mouthfuls, but I wholeheartedly agree!
Joe,

It was the Actor’s Studio with Mr. Lipton.
Souns like a great experience! 🙌
Congratulations!! You are so talented!
Hello sir. If you have a movie idea and or script how do you move forward not knowing anyone or what to do. Legit ideas not just bs.
You played Young Mr. Burns? That’s it. You’ve officially peaked. I’m picturing you channeling all the evil billionaire energy while trying not to go full “release the hounds” on the Simpsons fandom.

Aw!! Joseph that’s wonderful! I had a Bart shirt that said “eat my shorts” and I got in trouble in 8th grade for it.
Man!.. How do you manage to go so relatable and magically real?.... You're an actor!! You're supposed to be an asshole!.. But you're not
(I'm really sorry, couldn't hold this impression for a very long time... until this piece 🫶 love you brother)
Good for you! Brilliant!!!
Awesome news, Joe! Looking forward to watching the episode. I’m sure you did an excellent job finding the right voice for a young Monty Burns.
That’s so cool 🥹
Very exciting!
What an awesome add to your long list of accomplishments!!! Note I’m going to have to watch the episode! (Like anyone would have to twist my arm to watch cartoons.. even at 51!)
Congratulations, Joe!
Congratulations Joe! That’s really cool!
